Raining cows and chickens

Raining cats and dogs just doesn’t work when referencing bbq. In the great Meat Off of 2013 I have come to learn more about myself as a foodie:

1. I love vegetables. I eat salad for two days before our bbq dinners.
2. I am a food snob. Manufactured or mass produced bbq is not real bbq. It is suppose to take time.
3. Any articles or headlines referring to the ‘best of’ or ‘top 10’ or ‘must see’ go to my trash. I can not attend or acknowledge any other lists while completing this one.

This is Harlem in the rain, what you can’t see is the sideways rain and the rivers at every corner. Normally, this would not phase me, but I waled the wrong way and had to double my tracks. In the rain. Pouring rain.

The Dinosaur has a lot of beer options, a lot. We tried Sea Salt Ale by the Fire Island Beer Company, Ithaca Apricot Wheat and Long Train Blackberry Wheat. Further proof that I’m a salt girl.

Cheers! It’s the day before the 4th of July and we don’t have to go to work tomorrow.

Hello drink menu and bbq sauce.

We started with friend green tomatoes and smoked shrimp remoulade.

Maureen and I shared two pbig plates, this one features the pulled pork sandwhich, salt potatoes and baked beans.

This plate was the sampler and had roasted bbq chicken, ribs and brisket with side of mac n’ cheese and coleslaw. Again, Maureen doesn’t understand the point of cornbread.

We were excited to be at week 2 of the Great Meat Off of 2013 and together. And dry.

Hello Catherine and Nik!

Catherine ordered a half bbq chicken, mac n’ cheese and the sweat potato mash. She was a happy girl.

Nik also ordered the pull pork sandwich with coleslaw right on top, french fries and potato salad.
